10/02 Sun 7:30 HOLLY NEAR $30 +$2 processing

Holly Near is a skilled performer and an outspoken ambassador for peace who brings to the stage an integration of world consciousness, spiritual discovery, and theatricality. Near's professional career began with numerous performances in film, television and a run in the Broadway production of Hair. Torn between a career as an actor or a singer, Holly chose to pursue her love of music, especially that music which articulated the social conditions of the world community. In 1972, Holly Near was one of the first women to create an independent record company. Near's vision was to promote and produce music by politically conscious artists from around the world. Often cited as one of the founders of the "women's music" movement, Holly not only led the way for outspoken women into the music world, but also worked for peace and multicultural consciousness. Near has released 26 recordings of her own, including the seminal Imagine My Surprise, and performs as a guest on many others. She continues to write and sing political songs with grace and humor, and her integrity earns her the reputation as one of the most articulate social change artists working today, with a power and maturity that may only come from decades of love, fear, despair and inspiration.
